Magic dots in Youtube comments
Sometime ago (even before last changes to YT) i noticed strange dots in Youtube comments. They weren't annoying or anything so i didn't care, but now I'm curious what they are. They appear only in Opera (even with masking as Firefox or IE). I think i saw them sometime ago in FF, but I'm not sure now.There is at least one in every comment, and they seem to appear in random places in sentences.
Here is screenshoot of this dots: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/50433738/comments.jpg
(I'm using standard version of Opera)
I have this exact same problem, 11.61 on WinXP Pro SP3. I don't believe this problem exists in Opera 10.63 on Win98SE, though I'd have to check.
I don't mean to bump this thread so noticeably except that I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere else. I thought this was some sort of encoding error, but I can't seem to find a solution.

It seems like some kind of watermark, or behaves like it at least, I still have these things but they are currently more hidden- you can however spot them if you for instance copy a persons comment on youtube and paste it into notepad then you should see that the comment itself changes the default font size in notepad to very small, now if you start deleting words from the comment the text will eventually pop back to normal size once that "magic mark" gets deleted.
I have this problem for several months.
Just tried clean 11.62 USB install. Problem persists.
Doesn't matter if I use any other browser identification.
In UTF-8 the dot looks like "EF BB BF" symbol http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte_order_mark
Running Win XP SP3 32bit Russian localization.
Please take a look at this issue. If you need more info from Dragonfly or something I'll gladly help.
